# Subject: Song Submission Someone asked for an old Hank Snow song, "Nobody's Child." Although Hank recorded it, the original was Harry Hibbs. Here it is. Nobody's Child As [D] I was slowly passing [D7] by an [G] orphan's home one day, I [A7] thought I'd stop a little while just to watch the children [D] play. Alone, a boy was [D7] standing, and [G] when I asked him why, He [A7] turned with eyes that could not see and this was his re-[D] ply. Chorus>>> I'm [G] nobody's child, [A7] nobody's [D] child. [A7] I'm like a flower, just growing [D] wild. No mommy's [D7] kisses and no [G] daddy's smiles, Nobody [A7] wants me, I'm nobody's [D] child. People come for children to take them for their own, But they seem to pass me by and why I never know. I know they want to take me, but when they see I'm Blind, They always pick some other child and I am left behind. Repeat Chorus>>> No mommy's arms to hold me and soothe me when I cry, Sometimes I feel so lonely, I wish that I could die. I'll walk the street of heaven where all the blind can see, Then I'll be like other kids, There'll be a place for me. Repeat Chorus>>>
